Improve your digestion using yoga! My Grandmother used to say that 'good bowels and a good disposition go hand in hand'; turns out- it's true!

For years I had trouble mustering the happiness I knew my life deserved, until I cleaned up my diet, and started doing yoga regularly!

During this journey Dr Jason Hughes told me, "Over 80% of your body's Serotonin is produced in the Small Intestine. This cannot happen if the small intestine is inflamed."

As the old wisdom knew, great digestion enables great happiness!

So, if your gut is inflamed through poor elimination, IBS, food sensitivities, or a highly-stressed state, not only are you more at risk for colon-cancer from this inflammation, but your body won't be able to produce enough serotonin for you to experience joy regularly in life! So how do we create happiness naturally from within? Decrease inflammation through Diet, Yoga, and Breath!

This pursuit of joy, of health, and of personal empowerment through healthy digestion is what encouraged me to create a DVD that you can take home and practice daily in your own cozy surroundings, on your schedule. Through this DVD you can promote a healthy digestive system by increasing circulation, decreasing inflammation, and creating a 'rest and digest', relaxed state for your nervous system in which your body can heal and feel joyful. Do all that you can for to encourage happiness that radiates from within!

I encourage you to come learn to breathe, twist, and relax for your best health and wellness.

So far we've seen some amazing results from these techniques in improving digestive flow, producing abundant energy, revitalizing skin, increasing circulation, and creating overall feelings of well-being. Come join me for a breath-focused Yoga for Digestive Health session, purchase the DVD, or pass along this information to someone you love who may benefit from learning to breathe for optimal health.

Warmly and with much love,-Sarah

Improve your digestion using yoga! Oxygen is free, it is abundant, and it is one of the most under-rated tools for creating vibrant health. Learn to use it! Here's why...

Because breath is the only system in our body that is both fully controllable, and fully automatic, by learning to work with our breath we can tap into the autonomic nervous system and affect our body's chemistry.

Dr Andrew Weil, MD, in his lecture "Breathing: The Master Key to Self-Healing" talks about the vast health improvements he's seen his patients go through when they incorporate simple breathing techniques, as little as 5 min/ day, into their daily routine. These included, weight control, improved circulation (no more cold hands!), relief from anxiety and depression, improvement in heart-irregularities including atrial fibrillation, reduction in digestive upset including bloating, constipation, and irritable bowel, cancer remissions, allergies, and a variety of other health-concerns large and small that dissipated over time with short but persistent use of breath-techniques.

By influencing our breath, we can affect our moods, digestion, immune system, hormones, and circulation. Ultimately, we can control our health with breath.

In yoga for better digestion we use yogic breath techniques and gentle postures to retrain your diaphragm and lungs to breath deeply and fully, relaxing your body, increasing oxygen, improving circulation, and putting your health back into your hands... and your lungs!

Our breath is indeed the master key to health.

Digestion: the key to optimal health!Improve your digestion using yoga! Your digestive tract consists of a long tube from "mouth to out" making human beings essentially HOLLOW! Like a stuck garden-hose, if something's plugged or not functioning fully in your digestive tract, you're going to end up with problems! A combination of bloating, gas, brain fog, mood swings, digestive upset, low energy, depression, sluggish metabolism, acne, inefficient vitamin and mineral absorption, weight gain, GI conditions, and even a number of chronic diseases like diabetes, and heart disease can result from ineffective digestion. To top it off, the vast majority of your body's serotonin is produced in your small intestine. If it's inflamed, it's really hard to feel happy!

While each case has its individual cause and effect trail, the basic rules are:

1. If you're backed up or stressed, nutrients can't be absorbed (regardless of how many supplements you're taking!) 2. Without available nutrients your body cannot detoxify.3. With too many toxins, your liver gets overloaded.4. With an overloaded liver you can't digest properly and more toxicity is created.5. With high toxicity your body becomes more acidic.6. With high acidity your body becomes a breeding ground for disease L.
